If you go to www.RateMyProfessors.com,
you can comment on and/or evaluate your
professors. Black Excel has reviewed this website and finds it to be interesting
and (possibly) a helpful guide/tool for students. When we last looked,
more than
283,000 professors had been reviewed, covering over 3,600 schools. A few
examples of colleges included are Georgetown, Boston College, and even
HBCUs like Howard (96 teachers reviewed), Hampton (33), and North Carolina
A&T (50 teachers). Students rate "overall quality" of teaching,
helpfulness, and
more. A sample comment: "She is the best teacher in the whole world.
She's
caring, compassionate, and giving." Readers should understand that
no site like this
can be foolproof or the final word on any teacher's impact or lack thereof.
It's
simply another useful resource to consider. Professors are rated on a
scale of
1 to 5, with 5 being the highest score of effectiveness in all categories.
